The first season of Lucifer ended on a rather shocking note. Our favorite Devil gets to stay on Earth after making a deal with Daddy Dearest and is tasked with finding his mother. First of all, since when did the Devil have a mother? He was created, not you know. I haven’t read the comic that the show is based on so I’m not sure if the latter is staying faithful to the source material.
In my season finale review, I had said that I have come across a theory as to who might be Lucifer’s mom and at the time it made sense since she is known as a powerful demoness, but she could very well be someone else altogether. I’m speaking of course, of Lilith, Queen of Demons. Makes sense right? If it turns out to be her, then it could explain why Lucifer is so terrified of her. Wonder what Mommy Dearest would say if she were to know that a human can make the Devil feel vulnerable? I also wonder who will play the role of Lucifer’s mom? It has to be someone who can pull off being deliciously evil and powerful as well as able to pull off being immortal. Who do you think fits this description? Maybe the Pilgrim from Legends of Tomorrow? She could pull it off yes?
Then there’s the case with Detective Dan, or Detective Douche, as we are all used to hearing on the show. The man has turned himself in for helping Malcolm, and I’m assuming that he’s awaiting trial. Shame Harvey Specter can’t make it out all the way to Los Angeles. Then again, even if he could, Dan can’t exactly afford to pay the legal fees. Hope things work out for him in season two!
It would also be interesting to see Lucifer juggle his case-solving duties and finding his mother and bring her back to Hell. I bet that Detective Decker is going to have quite a lot of questions when it’s all said and done. Perhaps Amenadiel can lend a hand since Maze saved his life and all? Dude has to return the favor somehow right?

Lilith being Lucifer’s mom? Sounds far-fetched. I think they should pull off an original character like Amara from Supernatural. Would be a surprise if it was someone we already knew.
What aspect of it sounds far-fetched to you? Do you think that someone else other than Lilith could be Lucifer’s mom? I agree with you on the fact that it would be a shocking surprise if it was someone we already knew like Amara from Supernatural, but I guess we’ll have to see what the writers come up with when season 2 starts.
Lilith being Lucifer’s mom sounds like a weird idea. And the show doesn’t like to include characters from the gospel except Lucifer himself. The writers probably want to create an original villain rather than pull an existing one out of some book. Lucifer’s mother is after all supposed to be God’s wife isn’t she? But in the lore, Lilith is a woman corrupted by the devil. So her being Lucy’s mom would be weird.
Ah. Understood. Yes, I agree that the writers should go with an original character, aside from Lucifer of of course, rather than pull someone from a book.
It’s revealed in the second season that Lucifer’s mother is God’s ex-wife who co-created the universe and the angels together before God kicked her out of heaven and sent her to hell just after Lucifer. So no she’s not Lilith nor the Virgin Mary (especially since she’s just Jesus’ mother and nobody else’s mother) but rather she’s just the goddess of creation. I believe that she’s based on Asherah (Levantine mother goddess who was the wife of El/Yahweh the Levantine-Judaic Father God). And also there were myths, folktales, and fairy tales especially of those in Russia about The Devil having relatives such as having a mother and a grandmother. E.g. The Devil hanged his mother on a Rowan tree. I laugh to myself about this myth for I just image Tom Ellis hanging Tricia Helfer from a Rowan Tree as least in a dark humor kind of sense I guess.
